Well I should probably recap our Christmas first. McKenna got a boat load of presents from Santa, Mom and Dad, and Grandpa and Grandma. Even Thumper got a present, pig ears. We went out to the the dollar theater with the Meldrums and watched the Bee Movie while Grandma and Grandpa watched Bourne Ultimatum or whichever was the last one made. The movie was cute. I made cornish game hens for Christmas dinner and funeral potatoes. It turned out pretty good. Sorry no pictures of the dinner. Grandma, Grandpa, and Laurel left Wednesday afternoon despite snowy weather and made it home safe. I am glad we did not have to travel this Christmas. The weekend before New Year's Day, John, Mandi, and Spencer came to visit for a couple of days. I had to work but we did get to play games one evening. We stayed up until almost 2am
playing Bang and a game similar to Settlers. It was a lot of fun. They left New Year's Eve day. Dan and I had a party to go to that evening. We were invited to a party by some church friends. We went to a club house and played pool and games. Dan won a laser leveler and a jar of candy. He guessed how many pieces were in the jar. I guessed 250 and he guessed 189. There were 210 pieces so we both won but he was closer. I am the one eating the candy anyway. We spent New Years Day sleeping in until 10am even McKenna. She stayed at a friend's house the night before and we
didn't really push putting her to bed so she was still awake when we picked her up a 1am. We had lunch with the Meldrums and Kenna played at their house while Dan and I shopped a little. It was a nice relaxing day. Since then, I have had another doctor's appointment. No baby yet, but I am having random contractions I think. I still have about 5 weeks left. I am starting to swell in my feet and legs. So much fun. But I am still doing pretty well. Just trying to make it until my mom comes on the 23rd. We will see what happens. McKenna is at the last two weeks of the fall/winter semester for gymnastics. She can do a pretty nice looking cartwheel now. Sometimes is looks like a roundoff. They have a final day where the kids each do a routine for the parents. I am excited to see it all put together. Kenna will continue gymnastics for the winter/spring
semester. I will have to figure out the best way to put a video clip on the blog so you can see her cartwheel. I tried before to put a video clip on and it took so long I gave up. We will keep you updated on the baby situation as best as possible.

Sounds like it was a very fun Christmas/New Year's for you guys. Good luck with the upcoming weeks. I can't wait to see this little gal!
Finally! I've been wondering what Thumper looked like . . .
